There are epoxy keyway repair products.
I am guessing that a satisfactory repair would involve injection under high pressure. A clean grease gun would be one source of the pressure. You will probably have to throw the grease gun away after use.
Seems like you would have to drill and tap 6 or 12 holes in the wheel to insert to grease fittings. Or perhaps you could make an adaptor to fit over the end of the axle. It would have to be machined and leak free with a seal. O-ring would be easiest. A mold release or wax would have to be applied to those areas where the excess epoxy needs to be removed.
I can't see that backyard welding and fileing would ever be satisfactory. A machine shop could do it but it would be cheaper to import a used wheel and or axle from the US. That axle was probably used through the 560 standard tread tractors. Not sure about the wheel but there were probably several different wheels.
